TRAILING THE REPUBLICAN BANNER
IN THE MUD.

Fargo voted Monday for city officers,
and what was termed the Republican
ticket was successful by 200 majority.
Inasmuch as a large number of men
who have hitherto supported the De,
mocracy--and are Democrats now for
that matter-werc, on this occasion,
masquerading as Republicans, the result
in Fargo cannot be said to be a Repub-
lican victory in which the genuine
Republicans Of the territory can feel
much delight or a great amount of
pride. The issues there were not of q
party nature. Some of the more sub.
stantial citizens got together two weeks
ago and nominated a citizens munich
pal ticket, with Mr.. Won Media at its
head for mayor. Mr.. Won Media is a
business man of good standing and is
highly respected. He stood upon the
platform Of law and order, and had gone
so far al to say that if he was elected
the saloon men and gamblers would be
required to obey the law and close their
places on Sundays. 1t is said that Mr.
Won Media has Democratic convictions,
but is not an active Or strong partizan.
1t is enough, for the good of municipal
affairs, to know that he was all accept
able candidate to those citizens who are
law-abiding and desire the enforcement
of statutes so frequently violated and so
often set at defiance. The announce
ment, however, that he would close the
saloons on Sundays, coupled with the
fact that Mayor Scott had been carrying
out the same policy during the past
year, aroused the resentment of the sa-
loon element and determined their
opposition to everybody who should
presume to interfere with their "sacred
privileges" In casting about for :
mayoralty candidate who would suit
their purposes. who but Major Edwards
could have filled the vacuum? All he
wanted vas personal notorlety. His
craving for notoriety was deeper than
his love for party. So he secretly or.
gained the opponents to Won Medals
law and order platform and called it the
Republican party Of Fargo. The saloons
won. Edwards was chosen mayor by q
scant majority. Fargo will keep it,
dram shops open Sundays in defiance
Of the law. Mayor Edwards will no,
dare to close them. The wide-oper
policy won in Fargo as it did in Mime
apolis. In the latter it won under the
banner of Democracy ; IN Fargo it wor
under the banner of Edwards, who
trailed the Republican banner In thu
mud in order to gain q personal victory

A Part of the Plan.

'lCANroN, Dak., April 2.-Representa-
tive Clifford today expressed the opinion
that the retention of Sparks as commits
sioner Of the general land Office is a part
of the Democratic plan to suppress Da-
kota's claim to statehood. He says it is
the policy of the administration to throw
every obstacle it possibly can in the way
of the development of Dakota, for the
purpose Of delaying the time when Da-
kota must be admitted. Mr.. Clifford is
very bitter in his denunciation of an ad-
ministration that will tolerate such un-
just discrimination against the interest
of the great northwest. He believes
that Sparks is retained through the in.
fuence Of southern capitalists and
members of congress who are straining
every nerve to turn the tide of immi-
grafton that way. Sparks also has large
tracts of unsettled land in southern I'LL.
nois, and is undoubtedly interested in
keeping the settlement and development
of the country east Of the Mississippi.

North Dakota Climate

OeAA~SS
streator ull) Times.
John Barton, who has been visiting
his brother Pat for several weeks, left
yesterday for his home ut Devils lake,
Dakota. Speaking with him regarding
the climate he said: "Scarcely any.
thing is the subject of more inexcusable
mlsconceptlon than the climate of North
Dakota. Notwithstanding, all that, has
been done to enliehten. the public mind
concerning it, erroneous notions still
prevail. tits generally taken forgranted
that the comparatively high latitude of
the country must Of necessity render its
winters arctic in their length and sever
ity. This, however, IS an utterly false
assumption ; and as to its winters North
Dakota is no worse than northern ILL
nois, Indiana, Iowa Or, Nebraska. It
has its full share of t~hat4beautiful fall
weather which, IN so many of the VEST
ern states, is the only agreeable feature
of the whole years climate !; and it has
this decided advantage over Kansas and
Missouri, that its cold, when it at last
comes, comes to stay until the final
breaK-up of the frost in spring, there
being no sudden and violent changes Of
temperature, and no winter thaws with
their attendant disoomforts." The in.
formation received concerning this
country was very interesting 7; and par
ties who are thinking of purchasing
homes in the west ought not to forget
to look into the advantages of northern
Dakota.

.deliberation the jury returned q verdict
that William O'Neil "came 10 his death
from gunshot wounds inflicted by the
hands of one Elmer Clark, and that the
killing of said William O'Neil was done
maliciously and without justification"
The evidence was heard in the school
room ut the Infrmary, and the testimony
was listened to with the greatest attention
nv n tremendous crowd OF spectators,
gathered from all the country round. The
posf mortem took place in o room on the
right hand side of the Infirmary building,
and after viewing the body there the jury
adjourned to the school room.
Happily there is no evidence whatever
n show that O'Neil was drinking previous
tn his death, save the invitation he extend
ed TO n of the witnesses to take q drink
with him. The friends of the dead man
and they are legion in this city-are unanl.
nous in saving that he. was not addicted
10 drinking, and there was much evidence
shown about the city yesterday OF the
esteem in which the deceased was held.
He was a steady, industrious workman,
and his tragic and untimely death has
caused much sorrow among his fellow
workmen of the Crescent Lodge, M his
friends and acquaintance generally.
Two of the three bullets taken from
O'Neil's body were very much tattened.
The one taken from the wound above the
ear was a mere ''splatter' of lead, having
no semblance to a bullet, while the one
from the wound beneath the ear.was mash
ed fiat. The ball from the arm was in
tact, save the mark produced upon it by
the riAing of the pistol barrel. The piece
of skull bone broken off by the ball was
about three. quarteIs of an inch in dame
ter, and about as thick rs a cent.
